PG - 511-517 LID - S1550-7289(15)00814-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.soard.2015.08.507 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has established popularity as a weight loss procedure based on its success. However, LSG's effect on gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is unknown. OBJECTIVES: To analyze the incidence of GERD after LSG and to compare the results in patients with preexisting and de novo GERD. SETTING: Tertiary Medical center. METHODS: The authors performed a retrospective review of primary LSG from 2005 to 2013 and compared patients with pre-existing and de novo GERD who underwent LSG. RESULTS: A total of 919 patients underwent LSG. GERD was present in 38 (4%) of the LSG cohort. We identified 2 groups: Group A consisted of 25 (3%) patients with de novo GERD, and Group B consisted of 13 (1%) patients with pre-existing GERD. Diagnosis of GERD in both groups was determined by symptoms and history of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, and pH manometry. In Group A, 1 (4%) patient was managed with over-the-counter drugs, 17 (68%) patients were treated with low-dose PPI, 6 (24%) patients were treated with high-dose PPI, and 1 (4%) patient was lost to follow-up. Group B consisted of 9 (69%) patients treated with low-dose PPI and 4 (31%) patients treated with high-dose PPI. Medical treatment failed in 4 patients (10.5%) who subsequently required conversion to laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB). In Group A, 1 patient (4%) required LRYGB, and in Group B, 3 patients (23%) required LRYGB. The outcome of conversion for Group A was incomplete resolution of symptoms in the 1 patient, whereas in Group B, all 3 patients (100%) had complete resolution of GERD symptoms after LRYGB. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, 3% of patients developed de novo GERD, but most responded to either low- or high-dose PPI, with 4% requiring conversion to LRYGB.
